The acetoin assimilation pathway of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 is regulated by overlapping global regulatory elements that respond to nutritional cues.
Article in Environmental microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Many microorganisms produce and excrete acetoin (3-hydroxy-2-butanone) when growing in environments that contain glucose or other fermentable carbon sources. This excreted compound can then be assimilated by other bacterial species such as pseudomonads. This work shows that acetoin is not a preferred carbon source of Pseudomonas putida, and that the induction of genes required for its assimilation is down-modulated by different, independent, global regulatory systems when succinate, glucose or components of the LB medium are also present. The expression of the acetoin degradation genes was found to rely on the RpoN alternative sigma factor and to be modulated by the Crc/Hfq, Cyo and PTS
